The epidemic of back pain is enormous: It's a $100 billion industry, it's the leading workers' comp injury, it's the leading reason for disability for people under the age of 45, it will strike 90% of all American adults, it's the second-leading surgical procedure, and it's only getting worse.
As a huge burden upon society, many studies have been done to investigate this epidemic, and the results have been shocking because they don't endorse the standard medical procedure of MRI's, drugs, and back surgery. In fact, many researchers now admit that these ineffective medical methods have only added to this epidemic and escalated the cost of back pain. Let me share with you the new revelations on back attacks because it may save you a lot of pain and money.
For many patients the first test ordered by their primary care physician is an MRI scan. Not only expensive, but most are unnecessary according to a recent study in the Journal of the American Medical Association. The researchers recommended that MRI scans not be the first imaging test for patients with back pain. They also lead to more specialist consultations and a higher rate of back surgery operations. Nor do the MRI scans reveal the real cause of back pain in most cases!
